Moving Forward
"Phew~ That was a tough fight." Benimaru said it with a sigh of relief.
For outsiders, it might look like Benimaru was almost toe to toe with Ahat, but only he knew he was able to get those advantages because Ahat didn't know anything about his powers or how he fought. So, making an opening for him, he escaped quickly.
Benimaru first raised Ahat's vigilance against him to as high a level as possible, to have all the distractions in his mind disappear. When he achieved that, he used [ Illusion Bind ] to make Ahat think he was still fighting him. Benimaru knew this type of spell wouldn't work much on Ahat, but the small amount of time it would was enough to let Benimaru escape.
